My Breathtaking CEO Wife Novel - Chapter 642
Chapter 642: Chapter 642-lost track
After the Tan clan joined in, Li Tian and the ghost king finally understood the danger of this matter. The remaining Kachin State would definitely not sit by and watch.
“We’re in big trouble!”
Li Tian said again.
The ghost king was also silent. He had a bigger headache than Li Tian.
“I still have some other ways, but I’ll have to take action!”
“I know you still have a way, so I’m giving you a heads-up in advance. As long as we can live, no matter what we do, it’s what we should do. There’s nothing immoral about it!”
The ghost king’s method must be very destructive, because he only knew how to use poison. As for the ghost slaves, they were used for self-protection, so it was very difficult for them to cause any damage to others.
The reason why Li Tian said that was simple. The ghost king rarely killed people. On the contrary, the number of people he killed was less than the number of people he saved. After all, with his medical skills, if he were to kill someone, the whole world would probably be in chaos.
Up until now, Li Tian had never seen the ghost king kill innocent people. Sometimes, even if they were enemies, he would only kill two leaders and not the others.
He called this kind of behavior morality. He said that if a doctor didn’t have morality in his heart, he would become a killing machine sooner or later, a devil.
Li Tian also agreed with him, but today was different.
“I know, let’s continue forward!”
It was obvious that the people from the Tan clan had already gone there. Li Tian and the others wouldn’t be discovered for now, but if the three forces still couldn’t find the thing on the mountain and found the two of them, then things would become troublesome.
By then, the three forces would definitely realize that they had been deceived, and more and more people would pour in from Mount Arnau.
Ten days. Li Tian and the others only had ten days. If he had known that this would happen, he would have said that it would take a month. Now it seemed that ten days was too short, and he might not be able to leave safely.
The two of them knew that they couldn’t waste any more time, so they increased their speed. The three major forces had sent people to search the mountain, and it was unknown how long it would take for the entire Mount Arno to be overturned. In short, it was very dangerous.
Li Tian and the ghost king hadn’t rested for five hours in a row. Fortunately, the ghost king’s body had recovered. Otherwise, this kind of intense exercise would have been enough to make his body collapse.
Five hours later, the two of them successfully arrived at the foot of the mountain. Li Tian walked forward while covering up the traces they had left behind. This way, even if the other party didn’t find anything on Arnold mountain, they wouldn’t immediately realize that Li Tian and the others were on the mountain next to theirs.
“Isn’t the location a little off?”
Li Tian suddenly said. He had never taken this path before.
“Yes, it should be a little off. We encountered a problem halfway!”
After hearing Li Tian’s words, the ghost king immediately checked the surrounding environment. He had been in the mountain for seven hours without rest, so he had been following Li Tian with great difficulty. He didn’t have time to pay attention to his surroundings.
“‘Back off a little. I think the problem occurred at the intersection behind.”
The two of them had to find the way they came last time, otherwise it would be difficult to find the location of that thing.
This mountain was really, really big. They were all primeval forests, and the general layout was similar. Without a clear coordinate, sometimes they couldn’t even be found from a few hundred meters away.
Sure enough, the two of them retreated about a kilometer and found that there were two forks in the road. However, the other fork was blocked by trees and weeds that had grown rapidly in the past three years. If they didn’t pay attention, it was impossible to find that it was a road.
Although this was the case, Li Tian and the ghost king were still a little happy. This meant that no one else had ever taken this path before.
The two of them pushed aside the grass and then went in. With the ghost king around, a few small poisonous insects couldn’t pose a threat to them. The real danger was the big guys.
He just hadn’t encountered one yet.
The two of them felt much more at ease as they walked back to the familiar path. Seeing that it was almost time, Li Tian and the ghost king rested for an hour and ate something.
There was no way they could sleep. Every second was precious, and the two of them would only feel at ease when they got their things.
For an entire day and night, the two of them walked nearly 100 miles on the mountain road, and they were more than 1300 meters above sea level.
“The two of us, did we walk for three days to reach that position last time?
Li Tian asked during a break.
“It should be,”
“Then we’re much faster this time, so it should be about time We’ll be there by noon tomorrow.”
They still had to walk for another six hours tomorrow afternoon. Even though both of them were a little tired, they still persevered.
The entire Mount Arnaud stretched for one thousand and four hundred miles. This mountain was very small, about two or three hundred miles in radius, not even one-sixth of the entire mountain range.
The mountain that the qingmai Army was searching was three times the size of this small mountain. It would take at least ten days to complete the search.
The ideal outcome in Li Tian’s mind was that the two of them would get the item while the three forces were still searching. Then, the two of them would quietly go around the large area and sneak back to the southern province of Huaxia, which was in xishuang Bian.
Of course it was ideal, because many factors were not taken into consideration. The people in the world were not fools. Did the people of Kachin State not think of this?
The two of them rested for an hour before they continued to move forvvard. They had brought enough food for ten days, so they didn’t have to worry about food.
A few hours later, they had entered the heart of the mountain. They would often encounter large creatures, such as lizards that weighed tens of pounds, pythons, and even a bear. The two of them were so scared that they almost peed their pants.
Fortunately, the bear was only passing by. Otherwise, with Li Tian and the ghost king’s current state, it would be difficult for them to escape from an adult bear unless they used their trump cards.
Six hours later, the two of them felt that they were very close to the place they had come from. However, the place had changed a lot, so they could only search little by little.
In the past three years, there had been many tall plants growing here, which blocked all the marks that Li Tian and the others had made. They could only slowly find the marks.
The two of them didn’t dare to be too far apart. They were only a few meters away from each other. This way, if anything happened, they could help each other immediately.
The two of them searched for a full ten minutes but found nothing. Just as they were about to change directions, they suddenly heard a chilling voice.
“Sha…Sha…”
